What Others Are Saying about The New Book

Rather than overwhelm teenagers with the daunting challenges facing humanity, the focus of this new book is to help them move from despair to empowerment and appreciate the many solutions that are already being implemented to mitigate climate change. Developed by educators from across North America, the collection includes activities that explore basic concepts such as carbon pricing and climate change denial. Car trip reduction plans, bike-a-thons, and public transit investigations are a few of the transport-related activities.  How to organize a climate change summit or share local examples of climate change with peers in other regions are two other notable activities found in the book.

In an era where public opinion is shaped by emotional appeals and unsubstantiated personal opinion, never has it been more important to provide teens with opportunities to engage in hands-on, minds-on activities that allow them to explore the complex issue of climate change.  The teaching strategies provided in this 80-page, large format paperback will engage students and help them develop the critical thinking skills they will need as citizens of this era.

Purchases made by credit card are in Canadian dollars because Green Teacher is located in Canada.

However, when the total is converted back into U.S. dollars by the credit card company, it will end up being slightly different, depending on the exchange rate applied by Visa or MasterCard. If it is important that you be charged an exact amount in U.S dollars, we recommend paying by U.S.-dollar check (see “Order by mail,” #2 below).
